You want us to talk about Johnny in front of his back?

He is a member of these forums, you know; you could be totally straight and address him directly. Do you not trust yourself to recognize what works for you? Must you check with others before you're willing to believe or disbelieve? All these people out here can give you their opinion, but they can't tell you what is true for you -- and that's what Johnny has done here in the forums: expressed what is true for him. He's not preaching any dogma of Ultimate Truth. Whether it's true for you is your business, and you are certainly free to discuss opinions with others.

Just like any other member here, you are free to use any of what they say that works for you, and even to challenge something you don't buy. But to suggest that what he says is B.S. (by presupposing that in your question) and to address such a question to others rather than to the man himself? That strikes me as rather disrespectful of another member.
